"As a tutor, I work hard to help each student get to a place where they can feel comfortable with the material and go into every test with confidence in their ability. I like to find many different ways to explain topics or formulas including fun tricks that make them easier. I understand that not everyone has the same learning style and like to find one that fits each of my students. As a college freshman, I am close enough to middle school and high school to remember the classes and understand the stress students are under to do well so they can ensure their future. I think a tutor-student relationship works better if the tutor can understand the ...

" However, my interest in studying the natural world has caused me to suffer through more math classes than I care to count. As a result, I am well-equipped to help 'math-shy' students understand, appreciate, and flourish in a subject that they may have previously disliked. I believe in forging a relationship between the student and the subject matter with the idea being able to answer the question "when will I ever need to know this?" is the first step to understanding. Currently, I live in Houston with my bride, Nathalie, and our great big black lab, affectionately know as "The Bear". I love being out-of-doors in any capacity and am an avid ...

"I have taught English speaking and writing to elementary, middle school, and high school students in South Korea for one summer. It was such a rewarding experience! I think being a great tutor includes being exposed to different types of cultures, being patient, understanding, and passionate about what you're doing. These are all qualities that I possess. I believe that tutoring goes beyond making sure a student "gets the right answer"-- tutoring is ensuring that students UNDERSTAND the methodology behind that "right answer" so that they can apply those techniques to their work in the future. I feel a great ...

"Students need to be motivated and gain a positive attitude towards mathematics. Most of the time, students fail to realize that a positive attitude is the key to unlock the potential that rest inside the students of today. Once students unlock that potential, their boundaries will be limitless. I will help guide them to enhance their potential so that success will happen."

"I know what it is to work HARD for a grade! I believe this makes me a better tutor, as I can truly empathize with my clients and their struggles. I believe many students lack confidence in their own abilities and give up discouraged if they don't "get it" as quickly as their peers. I enjoy helping clients realize their own abilities and talents and seeing their confidence levels rise.."

"With experiences running a tutoring service in Paris, France and working as an instructor at Rice University, Jason is an insighful and passionate tutor who knows how to inspire your child.
There are only two baskets in life: one labelled "mastered" and the other labelled "not yet mastered." I devote my creativity to finding the most efficient way of moving challenges from the second basket to the first--where everything is fun.."

"During my undergraduate years, I was involved in the founding and management of a program tutoring youth who had classroom troubles or learning disabilities such as dyslexia and ADD. My friendly personality, quick-critical thinking skills and ability to adapt to various learning styles allow me to create innovative ways for the student to learn the information without being overwhelmed. I can break down complex concepts so that they can be pieced together and understood, not just memorized. I also did work with my fellow undergraduate peers at the time." ...

"When I was a high school senior, I was accepted into 8 Ivy League universities, as well as Stanford and MIT. I truly appreciate and enjoy helping students of all ages achieve their college admissions goals!
Outside of teaching and tutoring, I love to run and explore the city of Houston. As an instructor at a high-performing charter school, I certainly don't have a ton of spare time, but I enjoy a work hard/play hard approach to life! ."
